It seemed like a whisper, but I heard it all. Was he showing his true colors because I wasn’t playing along?
The disciple stopped his reckless talking as soon as he saw my bewilderment.
I pretended not to hear anything, poured water to drink, and mumbled to myself as I gazed at a plain flowering tree.
“The flowers are beautiful.”
(This is a time separator.)
“Yoyo Hwa.”
As soon as I entered the house, my mother, who was lingering in the yard, rushed toward me like an arrow. What’s more, her face was filled with worry.
“Mother? What’s wrong?”
Startled by her unusual appearance, I asked, but my mother, on the other hand, examined me from all angles and asked,
“You asked something strange of Lin Hwa? What’s going on with the prince?”
I was already drained from dealing with the 13th prince, and now I had to face this interrogation. Was Lin Hwa gossiping?
“What? What did Lin Hwa say?”
But let’s ask calmly for now. My mother answered in a dark voice, as if I had been beaten and come in,
“She said to tell Sun An if you didn’t return by morning.”
“Lin Hwa… this looselipped child!”
I spat out a curse.
I thought Lin Hwa hated me, so she wouldn’t tell my parents this. But she told everything!
As soon as I cursed Lin Hwa, my mother immediately grabbed my lips.
“Call her your sister, not your child. Why is Lin Hwa your child?”
“She just gossips.”
“Lin Hwa is just worried about you.”
“She just did what she knows I’d hate.”
Even before my regression, Lin Hwa and I had a bad relationship. It’s not bad for a lifetime. At some point, we become close. But until then, we were hostile sisters.
Not that we tried to poison or assassinate each other, but we did our utmost to spite each other.
But my mother tried with all her might to pretend she didn’t know that Lin Hwa and I disliked each other.
For my mother, I am a pitiful daughter forced to live disguised as a boy, and Lin Hwa is a miraculously found last daughter. Both are precious children, so she did her best.
“Anyway. There’s really nothing going on with the prince, right?”
I was whining, so my mother clapped her palm to refocus attention and asked,
“You said something strange when you went to see the prince. Saying you wished the prince were captivated by you.”
“Oh, mother. That was just a metaphor.”
No matter what I said, my mother seemed unconvinced. In the end, I gave up the fruitless argument and turned away.
Lin Hwa, who had been peeking out from behind a building, ran away like an arrow as our eyes met.
‘That brat!’
I ground my teeth as I returned to my place.

The time of Yedre passed quickly.
During that Yedre, the disciple unexpectedly showed no particular action. As if the conversation of the last night had never happened, he received lessons from me as usual, keeping a proper distance and showing respect.
He didn’t even provoke me with words. I was unnecessarily concerned about his last muttering, ‘Will you come out like that?’
Was it just a word said in anger? Thoughtlessly?
But I couldn’t simply think that way and move on. I remembered the disciple’s determined actions before regression, and they bothered me…
But even so, I myself only watched the disciple, not really changing my behavior.
Though I had said it would be fine to conspire with the 13th prince, the image of him killing me was vivid. It’s hard to joke lightly as I do with other women.
If the opportunity comes, I’ll gather all my consciousness and pretend to be interested in him.
Anyway, until that opportunity came, there was nothing to be done. I had to live as I had before regression.
(This is a time separator.)
So peacefully I spent my days, until the day I was invited by the 6th Prince, my whole body twisted in reluctance to go.
Before my return, there would be a gradual emotional battle starting between the 13th Prince, 6th Prince, and 2nd Prince, but in this life, there’s none of that, and I have to deal with the 6th Prince.
Though the 6th Prince’s feelings towards me are gratitude and not resentment, as we were not close before my return, it was still uncomfortable and awkward all the same.
Nevertheless, hiding these feelings, I finished my class a little earlier than usual and rose from my seat.
My disciple, without any sound, whether remembering that I was going to the imperial palace today or not, saw me off.
“See you the day after tomorrow, Your Highness.”
For some reason, I bowed to the disciple who followed me to the door, and passed through the long and narrow road connected to the Moon Shadow Palace.
Then, I stopped in a place where there were no people, tidied up my clothing, and went back to the 6th Prince’s imperial palace.
As I approached the imperial palace, unlike the 13th Prince’s Moon Shadow Palace, four sturdy looking guards were seen doing the gatekeeper duties.
Wondering whether I should tell them my name, fortunately, one of them recognized my face before I even introduced myself and spoke to me familiarly.
Male lead is reincarnated to save his wife
I’ve also read this one twice already. The female lead is kinda soft and gets embarrassed easily—not really my type, but the plot is definitely worth reading. Hurry up and read it, y’all!
Intro
When Shen Yuan encountered Su Jin again in his previous life, she had already become the Prime Minister of the current dynasty. As for him, the former top young master of the capital, he had long since fallen into the abyss, becoming a singer on a pleasure boat.
After a song ended, he was redeemed and sent to the Su Residence.
Su Jin respected and cherished him, gave him a roof over his head, and bestowed him with warmth. Shen Yuan fell deeper and deeper, but before he could express his feelings, Su Jin passed away.
Shen Yuan died to follow her in death, but instead, he returned to when he was fifteen years old.
At that time, he was not yet engaged, and Su Jin was just a poor scholar.
Shen Yuan gritted his teeth, casting aside all his pride, and thought of ways to coax and entice her every day.
The colder and more indifferent Su Jin was towards him, the more proactive Shen Yuan became.
He was not afraid of being mocked by the world, only wanting to marry his Wife-master early, to hold her hand and never let go for a lifetime.
[Note: This story will not specifically point out the male lead’s reincarnation time point; it’s all in the details. Whenever you feel that the male lead is acting strangely, he has most likely been reincarnated.]
